my new adventure...

One of the perks about moving from the flatlands to the mountains is the phenomenon I liked to refer to as the "powder weekend". I spent the entire weekend, well the daylight part anyway, attempting to learn and improve some snowboarding skills. Being a skier for 22 years, obviously having only one board STRAPPED to my feet was quite awkward at first. After two hours of a private lesson from a cute in his own way twenty year old stoner instructor,...I was on my own. The snow was downy soft, but the pain was still there when I hit it going about 20 miles an hour. All in all, I loved it. I hated to see the three day weekend come to an end. I will definitley be going up this weekend. I have to admit the sensation that it brings is in my soul now. Any of you who want to come up and visit, load up the car and come. Jenn...I hope you can make it. Ann...what's the status on your visit???
